Add the ratios 3:1 = 4
divide perimeter 128 by 4 = 32
multiply this by each ratio so 3:1 becomes 96length:32width
remember there are two lengths and two widths in the perimeter so divide by 2 to find the length = 48

Answer:  The length of the given rectangle is 51 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the ratio of length to width in a rectangle is 3 to 1 and the perimeter of the rectangle is 136 feet.

We are to find the length of the rectangle.

Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be 3x feet and 1x feet respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

2(3x+1x)=136\\\\\Rightarrow 2\times4x=136\\\\\Rightarrow 8x=136\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{136}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow x=17.

Therefore, width = 17 feet and length = 17 × 3 = 51 feet.

Thus, the length of the given rectangle is 51 feet.

Match each system to the correct choice.
pogonyaev

Answer:

Option A - Neither. Lines intersect but are not perpendicular. One Solution.

Option B - Lines are equivalent. Infinitely many solutions

Option C - Lines are perpendicular. Only one solution

Option D - Lines are parallel. No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope equation is known as;

y = mx + c

Where m is slope and c is intercept.

Now, two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal.

Looking at the options;

Option D with y = 12x + 6 and y = 12x - 7 have the same slope of 12.

Thus,the lines are parrallel, no solution.

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1. Option C is the one that falls into this category because -2/5 × 5/2 = - 1. Thus, lines here are perpendicular and have one solution.

Two lines are said to intersect but not perpendicular if they have different slopes but their products are not -1.

Option A falls into this category because - 9 ≠ 3/2 and their product is not -1.

Two lines are said to be equivalent with infinitely many solutions when their slopes and y-intercept are equal.

Option B falls into this category.
